WITH THIS FORECAST.
1) LESS THAN A 10% CHANCE OF FOG TONIGHT INTO SUNDAY MORNING.
2) LVORI NUMBERS ONLY RISE TO 4 OVERNIGHT TONIGHT INTO SUNDAY MORNING.
THIS MEANS THERE IS A MODERATE RISK FOR SMOKE AEROSOLS TO ALLOW CONDENSATION
ON THEM, BUT SINCE THE DEW PT IS FALLING(DRYING) THROUGH THE NIGHT, THERE
WILL NOT BE ENOUGH MOISTURE TO CONDENSE ON THEM. BUT, THE LVORI NUMBERS
ARE HIGH FOR A DRYING DEW PT TEMP WHICH IS A GOOD INDICATION OF A STRONG
LOW LEVEL INVERSION STARTING AT THE GROUND. THIS WILL CAP ANY VERTICAL
DISPERSION AND WOULD HELP CONCENTRATE SMOKE AT GROUND LEVEL BUT THERE
SHOULD BE A HORIZONTAL DISPERSION DUE TO THE WINDS PICKING UP TONIGHT WITH
THE PASSAGE OF A WEAK BACKDOOR FRONT.
DISCUSSION
DRY AIR WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH THE WEEKEND AND
INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. AFTERNOON RELATIVE HUMIDITIES IN THE 35 TO
45 PERCENT RANGE WILL BE COMMON FOR MUCH OF THE AREA THIS
WEEKEND, ALTHOUGH A FEW AREAS COULD DROP CLOSER TO 30 PERCENT.
SUSTAINED WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO BE IN THE 10 TO 15 MPH RANGE IN
MOST AREAS, KEEPING FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS FROM REACHING
CRITICAL VALUES. NO RAINFALL IS EXPECTED PRIOR TO TUESDAY OR
WEDNESDAY OF NEXT WEEK, HOWEVER, AMOUNTS LOOK TO REMAIN LIGHT.
